Four-year bridge project will close parts of Vine Street Expressway



More than four years at a cost of $64.8 million dollars.

That’s the cost of a planned construction project to replace seven structurally deficient bridges over the Vine Street Expressway (Interstate 676) in Philadelphia set to begin Tuesday.

PennDOT plans to replace the two-span structures along 22nd Street, 21st Street, Benjamin Franklin Parkway/20th Street, 19th Street, 18th Street, and the Free Library and Family Court pedestrian bridges over I-676 with single-span bridges, said PennDOT.

The construction is necessary to ensure safety along the roadway connecting the Schuylkill Expressway (I-76) with I-95.
